$1,950 Flat Fee Service*

List your home "By Owner" but receive help with contracts, closing and every step in between** from a Licensed Colorado Realtor.  Forms/Contracts can be conveniently done via Internet and email.

You Retain the right to sell your home on your own.  The flat fee covers our assistance to help you all the way through closing.  As soon as you find your Buyer we step in to help prepare the purchase contract and assist you and your Buyer all the way through closing as a Transaction Broker - - not an Agent, or advocate, to either party.  We are like a referee making sure the process is done correctly.

As our Colorado market has been recovering from a "Buyer's" market to a "Seller's" market, inventory of houses for sale has dropped considerably.  "By Owner" homes are being sought out more often making it much easier to sell on your own.  Buyer's are driving through areas they love just waiting for a house to go up for sale.  A home like yours!

Not only Buyer's seek out By Owner homes.  Even other real estate agents are seeking them out.  If you are open to receiving real estate agents who bring you a Buyer, you will most likely have an additional commission to negotiate with that agent.  If this happens, we will still be happy to assist you since the Buyer's Agent will be acting in the best interests of their Buyer.  Or, you may opt to negotiate a fee with the Buyer's Agent to take you all the way through closing.  You would not need us at all.

*$500 due upon preparation of contract.  Remainder due only at closing.
**Every step in between includes:  help you verify that your buyer is qualified; assistance with resolving inspection issues; preparation of additional required forms such as property disclosure, lead-based paint disclosure, inspection resolution form, and more; instruction regarding how to determine closing costs; assistance with selecting a title company; instruction about your responsibilities if you have a home owner's association; and assistance with other issues that may arise.  Every real estate transaction is different.  We will be there to help you through all of it.
